I love this game. As a huge Monolithsoft and Soraya Saga fan, I finally got to play this game. Sadly, this game never released in the west, and with that, it is stuck in Japan, though gladly there is an English fan translation for it, which is mostly finished, besides the glossary, which has some character information. First of all, I love the intro and title screen of the game; it has something really magical about it. And by the way, this game has a space elevator in it, just like Xenosaga Episode III, it's fantastic. The gameplay is also really fun. I like the idea of the different classes, which can make every playthrough unique. Personally, I used the "Battlers" class and had much fun with it. I guess it's a pretty good choice for a first playthrough of the game. Regarding the music, it's from Yasunori Mitsuda, so the music is great. The story and the characters are also fantastic, and as a huge fan of Soraya Saga as a writer, it was really nice to experience it.
I hope this game will get a remaster for the Switch and, with that, a release in the West. It totally deserves it, and I think it wouldn't be too difficult to put it on the switch, the touchscreen isn't required at all for the game, and the second screen also isn't really needed for the most part, and certainly everything could be put easily on one screen.
If you are a fan of Monolithsoft, Tetsuya Takahashi or Soraya Saga, then I really recommend you to give the game a try. I at least had a great time with the game.
